he wouldnt even have to make it more radio friendly by editing that 3
minute guitar eargasm!!!!
Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!
woot!

nod His vocal on that version is a touch low in the mix. But lord! If it got released keep that guitar solo I've yet to hear one that equals that touch of off the cuff genius! worship

Why would he release this as a single? It would get no play and completely tank.
When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading.

WOOF!

Butcherdog says that the 'Small Club' version is completely overhyped. Butcher, too, was once under the illusion that this solo was greater than it actually is. its good, not great. Additionally, the actual vocals and musicianship leading up to the solo are extremely poor by prince's standards. 'Small Club' - 'The Tao of Prince'.

just my imagination solo is pure exAmple of prince connecting with sky while soling.
